Now THAT was a full weekend!

This weekend was non-stop fun! 
 
Friday night Brent left for his annual fantasy football draft at Greg's, stayed the night, headed to the church softball state tournament in Faribault on Saturday, then had another annual fantasy football draft at Ethan's Saturday night.  Oh, and that's just what Brent did Friday and Saturday:) 
 
The kids and I were on the go too!  
 
Cally and kids came down Friday to stay with us while the guys had their plans.  Friday night we all had dinner at our place with Audra and kids, had Flapdoodles for dessert, and a walk to the park before dark. 
 
Saturday morning we were up and at-em and headed to Red Barn Learning Farm

The kids and I had lunch plans with my mom, sister, and some friends at Ground Round, then we headed home for a late nap for Nora (and me:)). 

After nap, we spent a couple hours at the Soldier's Field Pool cooling off on this hot weekend.

Sunday we rejoined Brent and headed to the Think Mutual Bank annual employee family picnic.  It was a hot one, but a great time as always.  The kids enjoyed a petting zoo, pony rides, and bounce houses and we all enjoyed lots of great food, chatting with Brent's co-workers, photo booth fun, and caricature drawings.

Literally moments after this,
she was screaming with fear over the tortoise:)
In her defense, he was kind of bulldozing
 his way around.

Pony rides

Nora tolerated it for a couple minutes:)
 

Family caricature:)


I especially love Nora's:)

Once again, Nora needed to get home for a nap, but Luke and I were then off to his buddy Logan's birthday party. 

Tonight, we enjoyed a quiet dinner at home and are staying inside to stay cool.  I...am...beat!
Nice and easy caprese pizza for dinner
with tomatoes and basil from the garden
 Next weekend, we need to get down to business at home with some outdoor projects.
